As of today 11/18 it appears that it is being built in the 
EPEL10 testing repository.

So it seems it will be available. Back when I installed 
Rocky9 backuppc was not available then either so I built it 
with help using the mock build system per this post here:
Backuppc build on Rocky9 
<https://forums.rockylinux.org/t/where-is-backuppc/7278>

I was able to upgrade directly from that build to the epel 
one once that was available.
I suppose you would have to use F41 for your source files 
now or F40.
